    8. Happy Birthday... Do I Want a Baby?

    TW: This episode contains discussions about fertility, pregnancy, family planning, and the emotional complexities of deciding whether or not to have children. If these topics are difficult for you right now, please take care while listening. In this honest and deeply personal conversation, Neets and Jaz unpack the uncertainty that so many people quietly carry. From the fairytale version of parenthood we imagined as kids to the very real fears of "What if I decide I do want children... and then I can't?", they explore the emotional tug-of-war that comes with not having all the answers. Is the grass always greener? Is there ever a "right" decision? Together, they sit with the highs, the lows, the grief, the freedom, and the beauty that can all exist at the same time. Whether you've always known you wanted children, never have, or are somewhere in the messy middle, this episode is a reminder that you're not alone in asking the big questions.

    7. The Fine Line Between Ambition and Insanity

    Jaz and Neets unpack their personal experiences with burnout and the very blurry line between ambition and exhaustion. We aren't just talking in business or careers, but in motherhood, mental load, relationships and everyday life. Because burnout isn’t just something that happens in an office. We also question whether hustle culture has completely cooked our idea of success… and why so many women feel guilty for resting in the first place. If you’ve ever said “I’m just tired” when it’s actually much deeper than that, this episode will probably hit home. Now listen, we did get a bit excited and drop some other eps a little earlier than planned. If it sounds like we're introducing something that we've already talked about in an earlier episode, that's because we are 😂 Got a question that’s keeping you up at night?

    4. Unexpected Expenses & Unsolicited Property Advice

    Another episode, another one of Jaz’s insane stories. We hear what she’s been up to and lets just say, it sounds expensive!  We’re unpacking the pressure, stigma, and outdated ideas that still surround buying property. We talk about why the “dream home first” mindset might actually hold people back, why renting isn’t the failure people make it out to be, and how thinking outside the box can open doors you didn’t even realise existed. And, we should note - there's a little bit of swearing in this one. Got a question that’s keeping you up at night? Head to our instagram page and tell us about it. We want to talk about it!

    3. Have I Done Enough For My Body Today?

    TW: Some of today's chats touch very briefly on miscarriage and sexual assault.   In this week's episode, we’re joined by the amazing Sam Galligan. Sam is a Brisbane-based personal trainer and the founder of The Healthy Me, with a focus on women’s fitness and wellbeing. What makes Sam so unique is how she’s evolved alongside her clients. As her own life, body, and priorities have changed, so has her approach, shifting from a purely physical focus to a more holistic “mind, body, spirit” philosophy. Sam doesn’t just train bodies, she supports women in showing up for themselves in a way that feels sustainable, realistic, and deeply considered. And that’s something we really admire.
